Huge undies and teeny tiny butts

undie folding

Ok, let’s start off by making a few things perfectly clear: In our current set-up, I do pretty much all the laundry, including folding and putting away for my wife and I. The kids get folded laundry on their beds and are responsible for disrupting the carefully folded garments and jamming them into their drawers. Sometimes I have all the clean clothes dumped on our bed mid-fold when I get distracted and leave things in a semi-finished state. Such was the case yesterday when the kids came into our bedroom and for some reason decided to start folding things. Ben hit my underwear and after two tries declared it impossible. He then proceeded to perfectly fold my wife’s underwear. I’ve always found women’s underwear damn near impossible to fold. Fronts look like backs, strings are tiny, they look the same upside down or right side up. It’s always been a puzzle so I typically fold things into a tragically unappealing ball and call it quits. My 10 year old son revealed the simplicity for me in 4 easy steps – see below:

Ok, lesson learned. Watch out Marie Kondo, you’ve got some competition. Thongs though are still a mess of spaghetti…

  1. Hilarious! Ben has got the folding to a t! That is how it is done when they are packaged to buy! Thongs do not even need folding! End of story. Hope you guys are all good. We had two snow days! Skated on the lake at our friends yesterday and toboganning at our place today! Bring school on tomorrow. Going for a test tomorrow to see what is up with my reflux/ nausea tomorrow. Need to fast so no food and water! Hope to catch up during the day if you are around tomorrow. Love to all Sammie
